Ancient Modocs of California and Oregon

Ancient Modocs Of California And Oregon is the culmination of author Carrol Howe's 45 years of dedicated exploration and research into the ancient inhabitants of North America. Howe's search for new discoveries finally led him to California and Southeast Oregon. Extensive black-and-white photographs, accompanied by detailed commentary reveal the treasures he found. Ancient Modocs Of California And Oregon is superbly written and presented, investigative and analytic book and highly recommended for Native American reading lists and reference collections, as well as the non-specialist general reader with an interest in North America's first human inhabitants.

This book continues to be popular, as evidenced by the fact that it has been reprinted a number of times. Although written in 1979, this work continues to have appeal. Part of that appeal, as I indicated in the title of this review, is the pictures. This book has a wealth of beautiful black-and-white photos of artifacts that constitute and invaluable reference for both archaeologists and the general public. This is a great resource.
